ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
JUNIOR VICTORIAN
Version 2016_1

Product Information
Dear customer,
Thank you for buying a high-quality Junior
Victorian aluminium greenhouse.
Remarks
In the drawings you will find the assembly instructions for all standard models.
However this manual includes instructions for optional accessories and should
provide sufficient guidance for all special-case greenhouses. The aluminium
profiles may show black stains, these stains are not a production error. They can
be easily removed with a aluminium cleaner available at every good drugstore.
The rubber profiles have been treated with oil on the interior to facilitate the
assembly. The ground must be frost-free in order to place a concrete foundation.
During winter the roof has to be cleared of snow or supported in a suitable way.
The greenhouse should be built in a location protected from strong winds.
Protective gear (such as protective gloves) should be used during construction in
order to avoid injuries. We recommend consulting your local building code to
determine the requirements in your area.
PLEASE NOTE: ALL MEASUREMENTS ARE IN MILLIMETERS, WE RECOMMEND
WORKING WITH A METRIC TAPE MEASURE. We understand that you may be more
familiar and comfortable with measurements in inches and feet. However this greenhouse
has been manufactured in Belgium using metric measurements. Keeping the original metric
measurements allows for greater accuracy and reduces error. You should be able to find a
metric or combination tape measure at your local hardware store.
Also, in Europe a period is used in place of a comma (i.e. 2.000 mm is 2000 mm).

JVIC 24 7'8" x 12'6"

Note: When assembling the foundation in this step only
hand-tighten the nuts. The corners may need to be
slightly loose to attach the corner uprights
Suggestion: If the unit is to be
installed on a concrete foundation
you will need to cut PRO210 flush
with the bottom of PRO6120.
You can lay the cut off PRO210
pieces on their side and use them
to secure the PRO6120 to the
concrete foundation.
Note: Before assembling
the foundation insert 3
M6x15 bolts as shown for
the sliding door guide.
See page J14-1.

Insert
a bolt in corner of front
and back wall for Seed Tray
(optional accessory). See page ZB2.

Note: If you have
purchased shade curtains,
insert the slider loops
into the gutter profile
before this assembly step.
This is shown below.
--------------
1-Twist lock
per end
Trim the square plate
on the round-hook
(which screws down)
to be able to insert it
in the channel.
Insert 28 slider loops
in each gutter profile
if you have ordered a
shadecloth.

Suggestion: Now is a good time to
install the L1 corner wind braces shown
on page J9.
------------------------------------
------------------------------------

Insert a bolt in each
upright where the seed
tray shelf support will be
located Refer to page
ZB2
-------------

If you have a shadecloth, insert 28
hook sliders into the ridge profile at
this time.
See page JSD
1 - Twist
Lock Hook
Trim the square plate on
the round-hook (which
screws down) to be able to
insert it in the channel.

Note: Roof windows
can be installed in any
bay.
Note: When
installing the roof
profiles, make
note of which
bays will have
roof windows and
insert a bolt for
the connection
plate.

Note: Wait until assembly is complete before attaching the roof
braces. Use a level to ensure greenhouse is square.

Notes on attaching the gutter downspout:
Use a small self-tapping screw to attach the plastic
gutter down spout to the gutter profile and also the
down pipe to the plastic downspout (Shown
below)
Note: The gutter down
pipe is attached to the
base of the greenhouse
with a screw that goes
through the back of the
elbow. First, drill a small
hole in the back of the
elbow and then a small
hole in the frame of the
greenhouse for the screw
to thread into. Run the
screw through the hole on
the inside of the elbow and
into the greenhouse base.

Roof Window
1 inch long
bolt
Note: A 1 inch long
bolt is inserted into
the lower profile.
This bolt is for the
optional manual
opener or the spindle
opener.
Note: Rubber seal is only installed on the sides
of the roof window.
Glass

Roof Window Installation
Slide roof window into the roof beam from either end of the greenhouse. The hook part on the top of the roof window will slide into a groove in the roof beam.
(shown below)
Note: Inserting a bolt on either side of the roof window will prevent it from moving side to side .
Manual Opener is shown above. This can be used in the winter when you want to
secure the windows in the closed position.
